Default finally got rotors

i was looking at buying some new rotos for my 98 gst and since mine where warped i decided tp upgrade them. i got a set of 4 from brakeplanet.com and i just have the front ones on so far with cermaic pads and its super quiet and super smooth. i would recommened to anyone looking for new rotrs and pads. i got slotted and cross drilled. overall i spent on everything no more then 350 for all rotors and pads. and brakes are strong.

Good upgrade.
Be sure to allow for break-in...you know, drive slow for a few miles, apply brakes until you've stopped (in other words, slow down slowly). Then drive slow some more, but this time apply the brake with some pressure making the car stop faster...

Do not just take a drive as if you have your old ones on before you have done a break-in.
